A hacker hired by Mexico's Sinaloa cartel, led by Joaquín 'El Chapo' Guzmán, spied on a U.S. Embassy official's phone in 2018 to identify informants to target for assassination, according to a U.S. government report. The hacker accessed call logs, location data, and even surveillance footage to track the official's meetings, leading the cartel to intimidate or kill potential witnesses. The incident occurred while the FBI was investigating El Chapo, highlighting the escalating surveillance tactics used by both law enforcement and cartels in Mexico.
